The title track from their new album. Somehow they have managed to Cate Blanchett to dance around like an idiot in it.
Still 50 odd years and still producing the goods.
Sparks are back!

Cate, Ron and Russell! Now that was a surprise.
A slightly different roll than in Tár!
Oooh goody!
I decided I wouldn’t go to see them on their latest tour. I am a fool.
Nice video, shame about the song!
Witty idea but a bit repetitive as a song
Repetition is a key part of the modern Sparks sound.
But this is ALL repetition. And I’ve loved their recent albums.
It probably is a bit. But it’s still Sparks.
Is it just me, or have Sparks always been this dull? Sorry Arch, but this one is pants IMHO.
You only need “This town” don’t you?
**Tin hat**
I love this, they are not a band I have ever explored beyond the biggies but this may well prompt me to do so. Cracking stuff, thanks @ArchStanton
If you are planning on exploring, the “Sparks Brothers” film from a couple of years ago is well worth a watch.
There’s a terrific 3-CD career retrospective you can get for around a tenner called Past Tense
Seconded. If you’re lucky, it can be had on 3LP vinyl for around the same price.
And another track has now “dropped”
(whatever that means?)
